ID: 569574Exp: 6/16/2024
Description:

Looking to cast children ages 10-18 years old for the Musical "Tarzan". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Washed up on the shores of West Africa, an infant boy is taken in and raised by gorillas who name him Tarzan. Apart from striving for acceptance from his ape father, Tarzan’s life is mostly monkey business until a human expedition treks into his tribe’s territory, and he encounters creatures like himself for the first time. Tarzan struggles to navigate a jungle, thick with emotion, as he discovers his animal upbringing clashing with his human instincts. Additional info: Please prepare a 30–60-second segment of a song from a Broadway Musical, preferably in the style of the show. Please note, this is a group audition. All those auditioning will sing their audition song in front of the group, as well as the Audition Panel for this show.

(closed-toe shoes that allow movement, no sandals, boots, or open-back shoes, no midriff showing, no low cut tops, no short shorts, no skirts without shorts underneath, and appropriate for the entire age range, as you don’t know what ages will be in your audition group.)
